Macrogenetics reveals multifaceted influences of environmental variation on vertebrate population genetic diversity across the Americas

Author(s): Lawrence ER; Pedersen EJ; Fraser DJ;

The broad scale distribution of population-specific genetic diversity (GDP ) across taxa remains understudied relative to species diversity gradients, despite its relevance for systematic conservation planning. We used nuclear DNA data collected from 3678 vertebrate populations across the Americas to assess the role of environmental and spatial variables ...

Decoupled responses of biodiversity facets driven from anuran vulnerability to climate and land-use changes

Author(s): Ceron K; Sales LP; Santana DJ; Pires MM;

Biodiversity loss not only implies the loss of species but also entails losses in other dimensions of biodiversity, such as functional, phylogenetic and interaction diversity. Yet, each of those facets of biodiversity may respond differently to extinctions. Here, we examine how extinction, driven by climate and land-use changes may affect those different ...

Neutral and adaptive drivers of genomic change in introduced brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) populations revealed by pooled sequencing

Author(s): Brookes B; Jeon HB; Derry AM; Post JR; Rogers SM; Humphries S; Fraser DJ;

Understanding the drivers of successful species invasions is important for conserving native biodiversity and for mitigating the economic impacts of introduced species. However, whole-genome resolution investigations of the underlying contributions of neutral and adaptive genetic variation in successful introductions are rare. Increased propagule pressure ...

Varying genetic imprints of road networks and human density in North American mammal populations

Author(s): Habrich AK; Lawrence ER; Fraser DJ;

Road networks and human density are major factors contributing to habitat fragmentation and loss, isolation of wildlife populations, and reduced genetic diversity. Terrestrial mammals are particularly sensitive to road networks and encroachment by human populations. However, there are limited assessments of the impacts of road networks and human density o ...
